| The Best Preamp is no Preamp? @daledeee1 A lot depends on what type of passive you are using. All are not created equal. Edit: I just looked at your system. You are doing yourself a huge disservice if you don't at least listen to a couple of good tube amps on those speakers.... | |
| Need speaker recommendations. You'll get as many different opinions as you will answers. So my answer is Klipsch Cornwall IV. | |
| Wilson Watt Puppy 7…Would it work for me? I would say your system is up to the task. But more importantly, is your room? | |
| The Best Preamp is no Preamp? The best preamp is no preamp only until you hear high quality active preamp @sns While I don't disagree that active preamps can be very good, I think if a high quality passive doesn't beat it, your system is what's at fault. I have owned many... | |

| Scams on Audiogon (McIntosh Amps) Well the ad has been suspended. I guess someone thought it was suspicious enough. | |
| Audio nonsense I've never walked off a skyscraper nor walked in front of a train but I have formulated an opinion as to the results. Nice strawman argument. Is that the best you can do? I see the objectivists are out in full regalia in this thread. So mu... | |

| Decisive moments your your audio journey For me it was in 1999 when a dealer brought a pair of Soundvalves mono amps to my home to demo. That was my first exposure to tubes and I was gobsmacked. I had a pair of Von Schweikert VR4s at the time and I had never heard them sound so good. Fas... | |
| BAT VK3ix an upgrade from Freya +? I had a Line Magnetic 518i and it was a fine amplifier. | |
| BAT VK3ix an upgrade from Freya +? I don’t think the BAT is automatically an upgrade. I had an original VK 3i and later a VK 30 (which I actually won in an internet contest). I honestly thought the 3i was the better of the two, but both are a little on the dark side of neutrality. ... | |
| Snell Type A III vs. Klipsch Cornwall IV I can’t speak to the Snells. But the Cornwall IV is anything but analytical. It is a full sounding speaker with excellent tone. Nothing thin about them. Oz | |
| tweeters /midbass fq zones Anyone who wants to know what you’re babbling about need only watch one of your videos to get a glimpse of what you call “good sound”. I just have to shake my head…. | |
